Pension Office
September 7. 1842
I certify that on July 1838, half-pay was allowed in the case of Benjamin Edmundson, decd. under the act of July 5. 1832, entitled "An act to provide for the liquidating and paying certain claims of the State of Virginia;" and that the half-pay commenced on the 22 d of April 1783, when the revolutionary war terminated. It now appears that he left the service, having been a supernumerary officer, as early as the 6 th of February 1782. The heir  administrator of the said deceased is therefore entitled to half-pay on account of his service as a Lieutenant of the 2 d Virginia State regiment, from the 6 th of February 1782 to the 22 d April 1783 at the rate of One Hundred and Sixty Dollars per annum.
The amount is payable to Francis A. Dickens, of Washington City, attorney of John M. Gregory, of Virginia, administrator de bonis non of Benjamin Edmundson, deceased.
